Abstract

The amount of waste materials being accumulated globally has created a big challenge for their disposal, thus obliging the authorities to adopt measures for the use of waste materials in concrete as the use of concrete is fundamental to the booming construction industry all over the world. This is not only a cause for environmental concern, but also represents the waste of potentially useful resources. The recycled materials are a key solution in achieving sustainability that enables the earth to continue to support human life. The current research is directed toward modifying the reclaimed rubber to be suitable for another application with low consumption of energy and less impact on the environment such as chemical de-vulcanization to be used as recycled vulcanisable rubber for tyre industry and other applications.
